Safety Precautions

General Appliance, Oven and Microwave Oven

CJ Oven Care and Use Manual

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Tie long hair so that it doesn’t hang loose.

• In the event that personal clothing or hair

catches fire, drop and roll immediately to

extinguish flames.

• Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders in contact with hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.

• Do not use a towel or other types of bulky cloth in place of potholders. They may ignite if they touch a hot element.

GENERAL OVEN SAFETY

• Do not touch hot elements or hot interior surfaces of the oven.

• The heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns.

• During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact the heating elements until they have had sufficient time to cool.

• The trim on top and on the sides of the oven door may become hot enough to cause burns.

• Use care when opening the oven door. Open slightly at first to let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

• Do not heat unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.

• Always place oven racks at desired level while oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the hot elements.

SELF-CLEANING MODE SAFETY

• Clean only oven parts listed in this manual.

• Keep surfaces of door and oven that come together free of soil. Refer to cleaning instructions on Pages 58 – 59.

• Do not clean the mesh door gasket. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, loosen or remove the door gasket. It is essential for a good seal.

• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven liner protective coating of any kind in or around any part of the oven.

• Before setting the Self Clean mode, remove the

▲

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to substances which are known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm.

The elimination of soil during selfcleaning generates some by-products which are on this list of substances.

To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this oven according to the instructions in this manual and provide good ventilation to the room during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.

broiler pan, oven racks, other utensils and excess, soft spillage. Excess soil could pose a fire hazard.

• Confirm that the door locks and will not open once START is touched and the door lock icon appears. If the door does not lock, touch OVEN OFF and do not run self- clean. Phone 800-735-4328 for service (see Page 64 for obtaining service).

IMPORTANT: Do not overcook food; fire could result. Proper cooking depends on selecting the correct power level and cooking time for the amount of food in the oven. Smaller portions of food that are cooked too long may catch fire.

• Microwave can be used whether the oven is hot or cold.

• If oven is hot from prior use, only heat-resistant utensils should be used. Take additional care when removing item from oven.

• DO NOT operate the microwave, CookSmart or custom combination modes when the oven is empty. The microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout the oven causing overheating if food or water is not present to absorb energy. This could damage the oven and result in risk of fire.

Safety Precautions

CJ Oven Care and Use Manual

Microwave Safety Precautions

Home Canning / Drying / Small Quantities of Foods

• Do not use microwave oven for home canning. It cannot maintain the food at a safe temperature. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to eat.

• Do not dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables. Small quantities or foods with low moisture content can dry out, scorch or catch on fire if overheated.

Deep Fat Frying

• Do not deep fat fry because the oil may ignite into flames and cause damage to the oven or burns.

• Microwave-safe utensils may not withstand the high temperatures of hot oil; they could shatter or melt.

Popcorn

• Microwave popcorn that pops in its own package can scorch or burn if placed directly on the metal rack. Use a microwave safe utensil to hold bag.

• Follow the directions on the bag which are suitable for the microwave wattage of your oven (750 W). Popping times may vary.

• Never leave oven unattended when popping popcorn.

• Allow bag to cool before opening; always open away from your face and body to prevent steam burns.

Foods with Nonporous Skins

• Potatoes, apples, whole eggs, egg yolks, whole squash and sausages are examples of foods with nonporous skins. They must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting.

Liquids

• Heated liquids can erupt if not mixed with air. Overheated liquids become superheated and may erupt. Stir liquids before and after heating to avoid eruption.

Cooking Utensils

• Utensils get hot during cooking. Use potholders when removing the cookware, lids and plastic wrap to avoid burns.

• Do not heat foods in narrow necked bottles or sealed containers, i.e. closed glass jars. They may explode.

• Dishes with metallic trim should not be used as arcing may occur.

• When food is heated in a metal container, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) spacing from the oven walls. Do not allow metal pans to touch each other or arcing may occur.

Paper Towels / Cloths

• Do not use paper towels or cloths that contain a synthetic fiber woven into them. The fiber may cause the towel to ignite.

• Use paper towels under supervision.

Oven Cooking Bags

• Do not use the wire twist-tie to close bag. Use plastic ties, cotton string or a strip of plastic cut from the open end of the bag.

Baby Formula / Food

• Do not heat baby food in glass jars. Transfer the food to a small dish and gently heat. Stir well and check temperature before serving.

• Heating formula in bottles is not recommended, If done, put nipple on bottle after gently heating. Shake thoroughly to obtain uniform temperature. Wrist test before feeding.

Ready-to-Eat Pastry products

• When reheating, check temperatures of any fillings before eating. The fillings of some foods heat faster than the surface, i.e. jelly donuts. The filling can be extremely hot.

MICROWAVE MODE SAFETY

• Do not tamper with, adjust or repair the door, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven. Repairs must be done by a qualified service technician.

• Do not operate the microwave mode when the oven is empty. If food or water is not present to absorb the energy, the oven could be damaged with a risk of fire.

• Do not dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. Newspapers and paper bags are not suitable for cooking; a fire may result.

• Do not use recycled paper products unless it is labeled safe for microwave use. These products may contain impurities that may cause sparks and result in a fire.

Sights & Sounds

Interpreting the Control Panel

The directions in the Care and Use Manual for setting the oven and its various modes are based on the assumption that the panel displays and sounds will “lead” or help you set the controls easily. To aid in this path, the following descriptions provide a basis for interpreting what is seen and heard.

Flashing Symbols or Numbers

Signals an incomplete setting; calls for another step or START to be touched.

I Beep

Signals the receipt of an entry.

2 Beeps

Signal an error in entry.

4 Chimes

Signal the end of a setting.

Probe Symbol

Displays the internal temperature of the meat rather than the oven roasting temperature. ture can be seen briefly by touching the cook mode after touching START.

Oven tempera-

Lock Symbol

Default Settings

The cooking modes automatically select a suitable temperature. These can be changed when a different one is needed. CookSmart settings cannot be changed. Use Custom Combination Mode if a specific combination setting is preferred (See Page 31).

START

Touch to complete an entry and before entering an additional one.

UPPER OFF and LOWER OFF

Touch to cancel a mode that has already been started or completed.

COOK TIME

Sets the number of hours and minutes the oven will be “on.” Unlike Timer 1 or 2, the oven turns “off” automatically when the time elapses. This pad is used with the automatic timed oven control.

F Number Codes

These codes are displayed when there is a problem with the signal sent to the electronic control board. ing Operational Problems, Page 64.

See Solv-

Convection Fan

The convection fans in both ovens operate during any convection mode. When the oven is operating in the convection mode, the fan will turn off automatically when the door is opened.

An advanced, powerful, high-performance JetDirect convection system is located in the upper oven. This revolutionary impingement convection system moves the heated air at an extremely high velocity and results in foods that are cooked in a much shorter time than standard convection ovens.

This process results in a higher noise level than standard convection ovens. This is normal.

Component Cooling Fan

Activates during any cooking or self-cleaning mode to cool inner components and outer door surfaces. This air is exhausted through the vent located below the lower oven. It continues to run until components have cooled sufficiently.

Upper Oven Heating Modes

The following illustrations give an overview of the heating activity with each mode setting. The arrows represent the heat source for specific cooking modes.

OOKSMART

– COOKSMART combines pre-

programmed high-speed convection heat (i.e., JetDirect Convection) and microwave energy to cook food in about one-fourth the conventional cooking time. COOKSMART modes can be used to cook a variety of foods, such as small or low-profile roasts and meats, casseroles, breads and desserts, vegetables

and frozen dinners. See Pages 13-14 for operation.

JETD

IRECT

CONVECTION – JETDIRECT

Convection cooks food by using high-speed convection heat. The speed is enhanced using high velocity blowers. The heat flows through the many jets located above and below the food. Food is cooked in approximately 2/3 the conventional cooking time when using JETDIRECT Convection. This mode is not an automatic or preprogrammed mode.

JETDIRECT mode can be used for cooking the following foods:

• Larger roasts and larger poultry items, resulting in a crispier exterior that seals in the interior juices.

• Baked items such as popovers, quick breads,

bundt cakes, angel food cake, cream puffs, egg souffles, quiche, pizza, puff pastry and pumpkin pie.

See Page 21 for operation.

MICROWAVE – The microwave mode cooks

food by using microwave energy to significantly reduce cook time, depending on the type of food being prepared. The microwaves enter through the upper jet plate in the top of the oven. One of ten power levels may be used when microwaving. See Pages 25-26 for operation.

CUSTOM COMBINATION – Custom

Combination combines JETDIRECT Convection mode and microwave mode to reduce cooking time. This is not a preprogrammed mode; the user selects the oven temperature, microwave power level and cooking time. See Pages 31-33 for operation.
